﴿ وَلَقَدْ كُنتُمْ تَمَنَّوْنَ ٱلْمَوْتَ مِن قَبْلِ أَن تَلْقَوْهُ فَقَدْ رَأَيْتُمُوهُ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ ﴾

“For, indeed, you did long for death [in God’s cause] before you came face to face with it; and now you have seen it with your own eyes!”

You were longing for death before you met it. Now you have seen it looking on. The pangs of longing come after being patient in enduring difficulties yet When tears flow down cheeks The one who is crying is distinguished from the one who is only pretending.
